My main lines of research are active galactic nuclei (AGN), quasars, and radiogalaxies. Briefly, during my PhD I am dedicated on the UV and optical spectral analysis of a sample of high-redshift and high-luminosity quasars with very peculiar characteristics. The analysis is performed along the Main Sequence (MS) of quasars, which corresponds to the optical plane of the 4D Eigenvector 1, and also takes into account a possible dichotomy between radio-loud and radio-quiet QSOs.
